It will deffinitely change, but how can you know it will change drastically?

Anyway, I already gave you irrefutable evidence, so I don't see the need...

Because two days tacking <> 7 days tracking.

And no... the bundle was avaialble to purchase at Nov. 18 in all Amazons across world (even Europe)... you didn't give me any evidence at all.

How could this be the week ending 29.th june, when it's just up right now and will be updated the following days. This is clearly the week starting 29th june. Get some amazon Ranking Basics plz, guys....

The week won't be updated... it is already up (to be fair these is some little adjustments due cancelations, refunds, etc but you won't notice it).

What happened is that Amazon showed the week two days after it get closed... usually they wait one week or more to show it.



Just to prove...

Wii U is tracking way lower than Xbone at hourly ranking right now... so if yo guys are right the Wii U in the weekly ranking will need to go down and Xbone to up.

Just wait.



This week is starting and will Change drastically. Want to make a bet?

What are you expecting? Wii U to be above X1 in NPD? Charts fluctuate, it isn't really an indication of anything. Don't get your hopes up!

This chart ending June 29 will show Wii U above Xbone right it is now... the next one will show Xbone above Wii U.

There's your own post where you talk about hourlies on the 18th, but you don't mention either of the Black Friday bundles.

He talks about the weekly chart for the 24th there, and the GTA V bundle is nowhere to be seen. Now obviously had the bundle been available since the 18th, and the weekly chart he is talking about ends on monday, like you are saying, then the GTA V bundle should have been there.

 

Last but not least, it's the Black Friday bundle, because it's not availible before Black Friday. Now where's your evidence? Cause I don't think you have any...

EDIT: And as a final nail in the coffin, take a look at this:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/2015-06-01/videogames/ref=zg_bs_tab_t_bsar#1

The chart for June 1st, and as you can see, Fallout 4 is at #9. Now, Fallout 4 was announced on June 3rd. How can it be #9 if the week ends on June 1st, when it hadn't even been announced by then? Exactly, it can't.

Hold up. Weekly sales do get updated. They don't simply release the weekly numbers after the week is over. I know this because I've tracked weekly sales and I've seen those rankings change as the week progresses. For example, I was tracking the ranks of week 4 of June. I posted the preliminary numbers six days ago, and then the numbers were finalized no later than Tuesday).

And now that I think of it the Amazon sales weeks do run from Monday to Sunday, not Tuesday to Monday, so it'd be the week beginning on whatever date it shown. That's because the week 4 I'm talking about was the week of the 22nd. Now, if that was supposed to be the week ending the 22nd, then why would they still be updating that week's rankings eight days after it's over and done with? Seems more plausible that they finished that week on the 28th instead of the 22nd and it just took them a day or two for the ranking system to finalize the week's numbers.

They did update old rankings even from the last month due Cancellations, refunds, etc.
